Software :: Adding Bookmarks And New Folders Under Multi-level Safari Folders?

Jan 20, 2004

I have a question for the the Safari geeks out here (1.1.1 version 100.1, running on MacOSX 10.3.2): I have imported my bookmarks from a Mozilla install on a Linux box, based on a hint I found here with the debug options (worked great!!!), and I have the following questions related to adding a new bookmark (based on the fact that my bookmarks are organized in multi-level folders, e.g. OperatingSystems->Linux->Security->Firewall, etc.):

- when opening Bookmarks->Add bookmark ..., how could I possibly collapse all the levels, so that I can easily scroll, and open/drill down into the appropriate level of bookmarks, without having to scroll thrrough all (by default) expanded levels? ... especially critical as some sub-categories may match names, with different higher level bookmarks, thus having to make sure I am where I want to be (e.g. I have a Security folder under OS->Mac, as I have one under OS->Linux, and I have to remember which one I am under, if the "parent" is out of the scrolling window);

- is there any easy way to add a new "level/folder", through Bookmarks->Add bookmark, at the time of salvaging a new one, vs. having to open the Bookmarks in a new window, adding the folder, then returning to add the new bookmark?

I hope the above makes sense ... I am probably hopeful - also - that people may have already run into this before

Safari :: How To Get Rid Of Duplicate Bookmarks Folders

Feb 21, 2012

I have tried everything to get rid of dozens of duplicate Bookmarks Menu and Bookmark Bar folders in Safari's bookmarks. But despite everything as soon as they sync they all appear again. I am trying to syc two MacPros, MacBook Air, iPhone and iPad2. I phoned the helpline which worked at the time, by turning off synching, dumping all the User > Library > Safari folders then putting the same backup file from Time Machine onto all of them. Then turning on iCloud again. Until it all synched again causing the same problem. I have just tried all this again. I now have perhaps a hundred empty folders called Bookmarks Menu and Bookmark Bar. With .Mac and .Me this used to work perfectly. With iCloud it is a MESS.

Info:
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.3), MacPro / MacBookAir etc

Safari :: Rearrange Folders In Bookmarks Menu?

May 15, 2012

Safari 5.1.7 under OS X 10.7.4 simply refuses to let me rearrange folders within the Bookmarks Menu. I use Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks and select Bookmarks Menu in the sidear. If I now drag and drop a folder within that menu, it just pops right back to where it was before. I've tried all the methods I know: 

(1) Drag com.apple.Safari.plist out of ~/Library/Preferences and restart Safari. Same problem. 

(2) Use the app SafariSort [URL], which alphabetizes all the folders and their contents. But as soon as I now try to drag-and-drop a folder or a bookmark, the order of everything reverts to the original (unwanted) order. exactly, does Safari store the list of Bookmark Menu folders? I examined com.apple.Safari.plist in both the XCode plist editor and in a plain text editor, but I don't see them there. (And actually it's obvious that the bookmarks cannot be there, since after I remove com.apple.Safari.plist and restart Safari, the bookmarks are back; where were they)

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.3), 3.4GHz Corei7, 16GB, SSD + 2T HD

Applications :: Adding Folders To ITunes (Not As Easy)

Mar 23, 2009

I want to add 18 cd's in one folder to iTunes so I just dragged the folder into iTunes but iTunes took every song and placed it as an album instead of making it a compilation. Is there a way I can take all the songs of one cd and turn them into a compilation without having to "get info" every file? Cos now I have 300+ albums all with one song since the artists are all different. I know I can get the info per file and change it there but I don't wanna do that for all those songs.

Safari :: Bookmarks Disappear After Adding New One

Jun 10, 2012

About a week ago after shutting down the night before and restarting the next morning I noticed about 100 of my bookmarks (saved over the years) had vanished from Safari (5.1.7) / OS X Lion. I replaced bookmarks.plist from Time Machine which brought them back but they disappear again once I add any new bookmark. I've emptied cache, reset Safari and no joy. The added trouble now is I have to keep adding bookmarks every day so now I need to preserve the new ones but still get the old ones back.

Info:
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

OS X :: Unable To Access Folders / Folders Are Locked After Transferring Files From External Hd

Aug 28, 2009

I bought a Seagate Free Agent Go Flex External drive. I transferred all my files from my previous external HD. When I went to access my folders on my external HD, the folders are all locked, with Sharing and Permission section in the Information "Everyone: Read" only! I can't change any of the information or move things! All of them are locked and "read only." I know how to change it, but only manually, individually. I have several hundreds of folders and I don't want to manually change all of them to "Read & Write." Is their a way to let me re-set the folders to "Read & Write" easily??

ICloud :: Cannot Delete Folders/sub-folders In It

Jul 2, 2012

I imported a large store of outlook email messages into iCloud mail - including many folders and subfolders some time ago.  I would now like to delete the lot of them. Deleting a single message or folder works fine.  However, when I try to delete a folder with subfolders, even though I reply to the 'are you sure' message by clicking "yes," the folder and subfolders initially disappear yet, immediately upon refresh, all folders and subfolders reappear and I find that the instruction has been completely ignored.

OS X :: Reordering Bookmark Folders In Safari?

Dec 23, 2008

I'm switching from Windows to Mac (I think). One frustration is that I imported my bookmarks from Internet Explorer into Safari. No problem there. But they are arranged alphabetically, which is of no use to me. I want to organize them with the ones I use most at the top, etc.

So I go to the place where you organize bookmarks and I can drag and drop bookmarks to any position on the list. But when I drag a folder of bookmarks I can't drop it between two other folders (so that it show up between the two). Instead, I can only put the folder inside one of the other folders.

So I've been searching the net and the solution people seem to offer is "drag the folder to the top of the list...". This is ridiculous. This would mean that I would have to plan strategically and first put the folder I want to be at the bottom, at the top, and proceed until lastly I place the one I want at the top. Of course if anywhere along the line I screw up, then I guess you start over again?

Safari :: Naming Bookmark Folders In It?

Apr 23, 2012

When I create a new folder in bookmarks, the name reverts back to "untitled folder". It first started happening when I'd name sub-folders.  I'd keep renaming them, and finally they'd stick. Now I've got a main bookmark folder that I've renamed over and over and over and over .... it just won't stick.  So I downloaded Safari again, thought that might fix it, but no.

Can someone please explain to me what happened to all my sub-folders? I am clearly missing something here as they cannot have just disappeared into nowhere.

All my folders had organized sub-folders containing hundreds of links before I downloaded Safari 4.0.3, with the viewable page version of bookmarks only the few "loose" pages can be seen. Where did all my original (subfolder filled) bookmarks go? Can I get them back?

Applications :: Safari Bookmark Menu Folders - How To Edit

Jul 3, 2010

When I click on the bookmark icon in Safari it does not show all the bookmark folders I have in my bookmarks drop down menu.

This is what is in my drop down menu:

And this is what is I see when I click the bookmarks icon on the top left bar.

I've tried dragging and dropping the folders but that does nothing, and I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Safari (it just came back with all my bookmarks in exactly the same place), then I tried restoring Safari to factory settings but that did nothing either.
